  1. Best wishes and have a great day!
  2. There were soft-nosed army LMSW heavy wreckers of the WW2 times.
  3. I would love to pay 1500 but transportation to the East coast seems to me beyond of my pocket. Any ideas on how to transport it? I like it too much!
  4. You're right for shure. I haven't noted it before though until I found Olivetroat's post here.
  5. Looks good on the pics, I also noted there were some different adds on it. The price is reasonable, maybe some other "reason' to not be sold still?
  6. I haven't come too excited about the stripping until I saw the picture with the sleeper. Shure it will look great. But right now with no grill and so on it seems to me damn attractive in relation of how that old dark red paint was.
  7. Thank you for sharing. I was told about this flight but haven't knew much. Too interesting to learn and too sad to know.
  8. Little addition. Mack VIN starts from "1". When a truck was built in the US. But when it's Canadian VIN starts from "2".
  9. By the way I may use corner pinion/gear with a combination of big lower gear set off mine's 5.02's wich I actually have 3 sets. Ratio is determined more by an upper (corner) gear. But they are behind the covers for shure. It's not my need of the day, I plan to start on my R not earlier than in 1-2 years. Although 5.02 seems a bit slow for a hobby long distance travelling truck.
  10. Too interesting stuff, have never had luck to pay attention before. Thank you for posting it.
  11. No, I mean Kruzenshtern with all the masts on the picture above. By the word I looked both sides down the river than crossed the bridge in New London CT but didn't catch any big mast vessel.
  12. I thing you should make pictures of the engine compartment and the actual compressor in its place and post them here. It might help. About 10 years ago whole the R-model was scrapped in Russia due to compressor issue. Vlad.
  13. Nice pics Paul, I too like the boat on the first one. Hope you enjoyed on board. Thank you.
  14. Glad to know it JT. Shure it accelerates your imagination on what a wrecker you may buy one day. Congrats!
  15. Western R's look cool. This one has nice color scheme for shure. Especially if we take to account lady's clothes.
  16. Looks like a tight built unit. Will need some work for shure. And Vinny, you don't have tandems in your collection.
  17. Sad news. But here may be another side of a cone - it may be followed with harder technical inspection of antique vehicles. Too sorry for everybody involved.
  18. I also have this thing in common for shure. That's why I make many stops by a long way. Niagara falls weren't really the aim, I more wanted to lay the trip down that point but look as much over as I could. Of course It's much easier when you're on holiday but it's look to me as an important matter to think about when on a job. You spend much more time when but more and more less than if you do a special holiday trip to same points. And from my side I tested it many time and glad to say - it works
  19. Don't worry Tom, let's hope we will live immortal. I also sorry wasn't able to head in your neck of the woods. GG2, thanks alot for the invitation, I hope I could do it one day. Paul, let's hope for the best.
  20. Sounds good. The list of questions: 1.Could you open the big side covers and look about gear teeth actual condition (aren't broken?) 2.Are you able to remove the carriers from the axles? 3.Could you make a shipping to Secaucus NJ07094 and how much it might cost? 4.What the price you would be glad for including all above?
  21. I like the head light and the second person. Everything else looks nice as usual.
  22. As for me I need carriers only. But mines are Neway and I want to have the same points for the rods. The last set you offered was out camelback and more difficult to me. Here's what I have:
  23. Vinny, you should pay more attention for the future now. Sorry if I tell the things you always use to hear. But you're also can make your day now. Just ask Matt Pfahl for some stuff you need for your truck and visit him for. Or it will be much better to make a trip with your truck there when it's ready. Hope we all see it soon
  24. Just one little nuance - have the words been spoken true in grammatic order also?
